A US trade court claimed additional power that could offer movie companies a way to impose censorship as in SOPA.

This illustrates the sort of harm that the bogus concept of "intellectual property" can cause. By associating unrelated laws and treating them as one "thing", it encourages policies that treat all these laws the same way.

The MPAA is a face of the big movie companies. Whatever it does, they are really doing. Don't let them attack you with one face while pretending with the other face to be something other than your enemy.
